Re: Encoding problems with PDF (when cut-n-paste Word)

Stefan,

You were right on. The T1 version used type 3 and my system was missing cm-super. After installing it text quality went back to normal.

Thank you!

Re: Encoding problems with PDF (when cut-n-paste Word)

I fixed it by adding.

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % for cut-n-paste to work

Using cp1252 instead of latin1 might also be better when using Windows (MikTeX).

\usepackage[cp1252]{inputenc} & or latin1


However, the pdf document generated with T1 fontenc has a much lighter (not as dark) text than the ...

Encoding problems with PDF (when cut-n-paste Word)

Hi!

I'm writing a thesis using (pdf)LaTeX and someone else is going to use part of my text in their report.

However, when using regular cut-n-paste from Acrobat Reader to Word the Swedish characters åäö are totally different and makes cut-n-paste more or less useless. The same goes for when I ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)

Ctable also works for figures : you just have to use the keyword 'figure'.

Great!

Footnotes work as well in the caption; actually I first tested that case.

Perfect.

The only drawback is that the default label for the footnote 'number' is that it is a . Any other value is an optional ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)

Try that code :



Actually, ctable seems to cooperate with tabulary (even if the footnotemark is inside a cell).

Great. However, I use footnotemark in the caption - not the cell. Hopefully, that works as well.
Another problem is that the ctable solution is only for table not for figure ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)

Did you think of looking at the ctable package? This is another package that handles footnotes in a table or figure environment (and many other things). It doesn't seem to cooperate with tabulary, but it does with tabularx. So maybe with some redefinitions in your preamble...


No, I haven't ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)

\usepackage{nonfloat}

I do not recommended the usage of the nonfloat package. Beside the fact that its documentation tells wrong things (floats placed with [H] are not limited to have captions beneath the float, how should they, [H] is a placement parameter and therefore has nothing to do with ...

Re: BibTex, Harvard etc

I now use

\usepackage[harvard,dcucite]{harvard}

and it works really nice. Howver, I still haven't figured out how I can use the \harvarditem format in my regular .bib file (i.e. with @misc etc). Do I have to use the raw \harvarditem? I mainly need to use it to handle Organizations and their ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)

Hi Juanjo!

Thank you for replying.

I've had a look at the file you attach in your first post. Several coments are in order:
It is not a minimal working example. Obviously it is not minimal (most of the code can be dropped) and it is not working: since you include a \footnote command in \caption ...

Problems with \footnote in \caption (in table or figure env)


the threeparttable package should be a good solution.
Stefan

I saw that being mentioned in other places, but I'm already using tabulary and I need to use that. Can I use threeparttable together with tabulary?

At the moment I used footnotemark and footnotetext but the footnotes are on the wrong ...
